Staying with the Uncertainty: Uncertainty-Scaffolding Strategies for Artificial Moral Advisors in LLM-to-LLM Simulated Conversations

Salvatore Greco, Hainiu Xu, Jacopo Domenicucci +2

LLMs are increasingly deployed as Artificial Moral Advisors (AMA) in a variety of contexts: what kind of conversational patterns should they display? In this paper, we study how AM…

RAID: A Shared Benchmark for Robust Evaluation of Machine-Generated Text Detectors

Liam Dugan, Alyssa Hwang, Filip Trhlik +5

Many commercial and open-source models claim to detect machine-generated text with extremely high accuracy (99% or more). However, very few of these detectors are evaluated on shar…
